My Profile

My name is Mohammad Abbas. I was born in the capital of the UAE .I live in three floor house in al Karma Street near Al Rotha hospital. I live with my family and I have five sisters and one brother. I graduated from the science section in high school since 2 years ago and I was 17 years old. It was a difficult year for me because I had to pass in many exams in order to join the college .After having many options I chose to join HCT “Higher colleges of technology”. I have lots of hobbies but I’m going to mention some of them. One of my hobbies is playing videogame specially soccer games. Sometimes I gather with my friends and play soccer. More over I spend my free time designing an electronic cards and remake photos with the Adobe photo shop program .Moreover I like to watch Hollywood movies in the cinema or on DVD. My favorite films are Goal, fast and furies, kingdom of heaven and kicking and screaming. In my opinion Thursday is the suitable day to do some activities but since there are no holidays on Thursday it will be difficult to do all your activities in one day.

Another think that he mentioned is the changing in the climate of the world that caused by green houses. In addiction he discussed the high decrease of ice pieces in the Greenland west the Antarctica. Then he showed some the level of co² and the rapid increase of it in the recent years and what danger that will cause in the future.

Definition

Global warming is the rise in the global average surface temperature resulting from the improvement of the greenhouse effect. This improvement is polluting the air. Gases that been created form factories that controlled by humans especially carbon dioxide. Another definition is the element created by burning fossil fuel and wood. There are some evidences about this phenomena that I will talk about them in the next part of this section.

The big pieces of ice started to melt from the top of mountains and that is happen all over the world such as in Europe, Alaska and Mount Kilimanjaro. The courses of this melting is related to the changes of the percentage of rainfall resulting from the increase of the temperature which we called it the global warming.





you can see thebig difference between the two pictures which have been taken by NASA in
1993-2000.


In 2004 they started to make a study in Russia about the temperature and they found that the average temperature in Siberia around 6000 years ago heated up by 3 to 9 degrees Celsius in the winter and by 2 to 6 degrees Celsius in the summer. One of the important evidence is the increase of carbon dioxide which caused by burning fossil fuel, So the scientists discovered that the increasing of this element will also increase the temperature all over the world.



you can notice the rapid increase of carbon dioxide every year
